We always enjoy Cafe Excel,
especially the chopped salad, bbq chicken pizza and strawberry tart. Unfortunately, for all of us who love Cafe Excel, they are being forced to move in March. We have been told they will reopen at a new location in the fall. We sincerely hope this is true!"

Loved the wine list. The food was
very appetizing. Was kind of disappointed that since I had been there last, lots of pasta taken off the menu. However, not a deal breaker. Neighborhood gem! Waitservice was great."

Restaurant could have been more
"kid-friendly." They did not offer that the sauce on the pasta and meatballs that we said was going to be shared with a 3 year old was spicy. We did not ask, but we did not expect that such a dish would be as spicy as it was. They also charged for a refill on the child's milk, which he needed in order to eat any of the spicy pasta. They also charged for a substitution of a salad dressing...not an addition, a substitution. Again, there was no statement by the waitress that a substitution would incur an extra charge...this was removed when we complained."

My husband made reservations for
our family of 4 for my birthday last week. The Appetizer was not as good as it has been before. We ordered the Mediterranean plate. I ordered the Seafood linguine and it had no flavor so I had to ask for salt (which was not on any of the tables). My husband had the prime rib and it didn't taste like anything either. My son had the Gyro which had way too much Tzaziki (sp?) in it and he had to take it off since it had way too many onions on it. The desserts were good as usual. I've been coming to Cafe Eccell since before we had children and i have to say it's just not as good as it used to be."

I've always loved the good and
atmosphere at Cafe Eccell. Fine dining for special occasion or a special lunch that is reasonably priced. However, with as nice as the menu and desserts are that are offered, I'm so disappointed that they do not offer lattes, cappuccinos, etc. Just seems odd to me that this isn't offered to go with those popular desserts! When we asked if they had any out waiter said no and didn't even offer plain coffee or cream. Just apologized and brought our check.However, any restaurant that would be a competitor to this one in town-- Maddens, Christopher's, La Riviara, etc offer nice cappuccinos, lattes etc. or at the least a really nice coffee and cream as a finish to a nice meal!"
Dined on 12/23/2013
Food was good, the room we were in
was noisy and the lighting was so bright for an evening dinner. The waiter was new, too new to be taking on a big table alone. So our food and drinks were late coming out."

Our first visit -can;t believe we
waited so long to try this place out. We will definitely be back. Try the strawberry tart - it's the best dessert I have had in College Station! I had barbeque chicken with veggies, hubby had Prime Rib eye steak. Both were perfect!"

Our waitress was wonderful and the
ambience was nice. I had the tilapia which was dry. It was served with "roasted vegetables" which was a few pieces of squash and a lot of onions. However, the charge for the fish was removed from our tab, which we appreciated."
Dined on 10/26/2013
This restaurant was recommended by
a bed and breakfast in the area and had many good reviews. We were pleasantly surprised to find a place serving good to excellent quality food not geared to the standard college student's menu. The Mediterranean appetizer was delicious, especially the tzadziki. Our son really wanted fish, which he says is not available anywhere on campus. He loved the salmon entrée. Our pizza was very good although we couldn't find any sausage on it and the crust was a little too soft in the center. Prices were higher than other restaurants but comparable to the difference in food quality. The atmosphere was a bit dark and dreary which made it a challenge to read the menu. No problems with the table service."
Dined on 10/26/2013
Food and charm lived up to our
memories from our younger days as struggling undergrads. Great ambience and energy. Our waiter was apathetic and often distracted when dealing with us but it did not detract from dinner as a whole to any great degree. All in our group of four were ultimately satisfied."

Visiting for Parent Welcome
Weekend and dined at Eccell. We enjoyed ourselves and our meal.. it was nice to see others/assist manager help out the wait staff with drink refills."
Dined on 10/25/2013
I loved the convenience of making
our reservation on-line. Our table was ready when we walked in the door 5 minutes before our reservation time. The server was friendly, efficient and checked on us just enough to let us know he was aware, but not so much as to be intrusive. I had the Sea Bass which was perfectly cooked and season, another dinner chose the Snapper and was delighted, another had the gourmet grill cheese and tomato basil soup, and another had the Penne Pasta with Chicken with Rosemary Cream Sauce. I must admit I enjoyed a fair amount of the Penne Pasta with Chicken dish, on the ruse that I was trying to figure out the sauce. The Strawberry Tarts were incredible. We can't wait for our next visit!"

Seabird Ecology
Tufted Puffin Status and Trends
Project Description
Tufted Puffin (Fratercula cirrhata) populations have apparently declined significantly in Washington State waters, including the Salish Sea region (Puget Sound, Strait of Juan de Fuca, Strait of Georgia), during the 1980s and 1990s. However, quantitative assessments of the extent of the decline and of factors influencing puffin population trends are lacking. To begin to evaluate population trends and potential explanatory factors, we used boat-based surveys to assess occupancy of historic breeding sites. To examine reproductive trends, we monitored the puffin population on Tatoosh Island, Washington since 2005, and are compared breeding performance to that of sympatric seabird species like the rhinoceros auklet.
This work was funded by the SeaDoc Society, the Puget Sound Action Team, and Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife.

Gut microbes may be behind weight loss after gastric bypass
Mice slim down after receiving bacteria transplanted from rodents that had the surgery
Intestinal bacteria may be responsible for at least part of the fat-shedding effects of a popular weight-loss surgery, a new study in mice suggests. Those naturally occurring bacteria not only trim the tummies of mice that have had the surgery but, when transplanted into mice that have not had surgery, cause them to lose weight as well.
Roux-en-Y, the most common technique for gastric bypass, diverts food around most of the stomach and upper small intestine. Some patients go on to lose large amounts of weight, and the surgery may produce other health benefits, such as improving symptoms of type 2 diabetes (SN: 9/10/11, p. 26). In mice, those benefits stem from a bacterial blend fostered by bypass surgery, researchers report March 27 in Science Translational Medicine.
The finding could be a first step toward "bypassing the bypass" as a means of treating obesity and diabetes, says coauthor Lee Kaplan, a gastroenterologist who heads Massachusetts General Hospital's Weight Center. Possible treatments may include replacing or augmenting an obese person's intestinal community.
Still, says Guilherme Campos, a surgeon at the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health in Madison, the study was done in mice, so the role that gut microbes play in humans' weight loss is unknown. "Is it the main driver? Likely not, but it is still likely one of the components that assist gastric bypass patients to lose weight in the long run."
Previous studies of people and rats have found that the natural mix of microbes in the intestines changes after gastric bypass, with some groups growing more prominent and others diminishing in number. No one knew whether the altered microbial composition was merely a side effect of the surgery, or whether shifting bacterial populations could help people lose weight.
To find out, Kaplan and colleagues fattened up mice then performed either bypass or a sham surgery on the animals. Mice in the bypass group lost about 29 percent of their body weight within three weeks of the procedure. But even before the mice dropped weight, those in the bypass group already had an altered mix of intestinal bacteria.
Compared with the sham operation group, the bypass mice had more of certain types of microbes called Gammaproteobacteria, particularly Escherichia species. Some species of Escherichia are pathogens, but others help prevent inflammation and maintain intestinal health. Bypass mice also had more Akkermansia bacteria, which can feed on mucus lining the intestines, particularly when the host is cutting calories. The researchers speculate that the microbes somehow trigger fat-burning changes in the host's metabolism.
Then the researchers transplanted bacteria from the intestines of bypass mice into mice that had been raised without any bacteria. The formerly germ-free mice slimmed down, trimming about 5 percent of their body weight, even though they started out lean. Germ-free mice that received bacteria from the guts of sham surgery mice actually packed on a bit of fat.
The researchers are investigating what the bacteria do to cause fat reduction.
Bacterial transplants might eventually help some people, but they won't solve the global obesity epidemic, Campos says. A person's social environment and exercise habits are far more complex than a mouse's. "The factors that lead to morbid obesity in humans are completely different than what is seen in a laboratory setting," he says. Patients who don't change their lifestyles along with their gut microbes may regain lost weight, he says.

Just found out that when our house was built they bypassed the cold to kitchen sink and outside hosebibs from the main line so even with the water softener we will still have 20gpg hard water coming through the kitchen sink. The spots in the sink are driving me crazy!!! Are there any pou filters I can get for hardness specifically for the kitchen sink or should I try to find the line to sink and try to tie it back into the softened line? I understand why they did it but since we already have an ro system installed i'm not not too concerned about the additional salt in the drinking water. Also, I've read that increased hardness will foul up the ro membrane faster if its not addressed. Thoughts?
Do it right. Find the line and eliminate the bypass, or install valves to make it optional.
Okay so here's my next question. Is there a standard location for where the T to the kitchen sink would be so I don't go punching holes all over everywhere in my garage walls? Should it be somewhere near the loop for the water softener or could it really be anywhere? The house is a new build so I guess as a last resort I could try to get in touch with the company that plumbed the house if I can find out who they are?
It's likely near the softener, but no guarantees. See if the builder or your local building official has an as-built plan they could give you a copy of. That's a good thing to have anyway.
Remember, to be delivering unsoftened water, that line has to originate upstream from the softener. Softeners are usually installed near the point of entry of the water line into the house, so if you poke around between the softener and the POE, you might find what you're looking for. Unfortunately, maybe, since the hose bibs are also on raw water (a good idea, mostly), the upstream tap you'll find probably feeds the hose bibs, and the sink is tapped off that line way downstream. Is there a hose bib on the outside wall near the sink? It may be hard to find the source for the sink. You are probably looking at running a new water line to the sink from the most convenient source of softened water. Any cold water fixture is an eligible candidate, including the toilets, probably. In Phoenix, I'd guess your plumbing is under the slab, but it's also legal and practical to run new piping on the outside walls.Time to get creative.

Or they run the lines outside along the side of the house, underground and enter under/in the slab where needed.
The only way to find out is to contact the builder/plumber or dig up the main or open walls.
IMO there should be a law against plumbing raw water to the kitchen sink in slab construction.

True, the RO membrane will not last as long if it is fed with hard water, but the price of membranes has dropped so much in the past 25 years that is really no longer a concern. We used to try to get 5-7 years out of a membrane with pre-treatment. Now that membranes are 1/10th of the cost they used to be, annual to semi annual replacements is not a big deal. Good luck finding the kitchen sink bypass, every builder does it differently, it is usually based on cost as to how and where they bypass the cold kitchen sink. Another solution, if you have a tankless water heater, turn the temperature down to 108, and only use the hot water at the kitchen sink since it is soft. I prefer it in my own house, and take a "hot only" shower. This will also add a safety factor if you have kids or elderly for elimination of any scaldinig potential. Do not do this if you have a tank heater! They can become breeding grounds for bacteria.
Found out they split the cold line to the kitchen sink right by the main coming into the house. Unfortunately, it's on the complete opposite side of the house from where my loop is and I'd have to rip apart one of bathrooms to get to it. So it's really not worth it. We do have a tankless water heater so I think we'll only be using hot water at the kitchen sink from now on.
On to my next and hopefully final question for you. Our softener and all of the supplies are scheduled to show up Wednesday. Wondering if you could help me out with programming the correct settings for efficiency. Here's what I'm thinking. I purposely bought a system that's a little oversized for our needs right now. Currently we have two adults and a teenage boy. Twins are on the way so eventually we will have five people. For now though it's only three. I would estimate our daily usage at ~200 gallons. 200 gallons per day x 20gpg hardness x 8 day regen = 32,000 grains. If I program my valve as a 2.0 rather than a 2.5 and set it for 8lbs of salt I think that gets me close based on some of the research I've done. Does this sound correct? Ditto, if and when you have the time could you help me out with the proper settings like I've seen you do for some other folks? I'd really appreciate it. This is really the last piece of the puzzle for me. You have all been so helpful. Without this forum I'm really not sure I would have had the courage to tackle this project on my own. It's been quite a learning experience.
Next house you build, run a soft-cold, hard-cold, and hot-return loop to all fixtures. Then you can use solar power to have instant (and free) hot water everywhere, and choose what you want at each point of use. Also make sure there's one soft hose bib for washing the car, boat, plane, etc. A hot hose bib is handy as well.
What unit did you get? I will gladly post the programming sheet for it.
Congrats on the twins!
Unfortunately the T'd the refrigerator line off of the cold line under the kitchen sink. I've already re-routed the refrigerator line through the ro system so at least we have good water going to the frig now.
Went with the 2.5 cubic foot with 7000sxt valve.

Interpreter Mike Woodard
Wheelchair basketball as a sport, began in 1948 when World War II veterans began returning home. Unfortunately, many of the veterans were paralyzed causing them to remain in wheelchairs for the rest of their lives. To keep themselves entertained, these veterans began trying a multitude of sports. Many started with ping-pong and pool, progressed to bowling and swimming, and finally made their way to softball and basketball teams. It wasn't long before basketball became the #1 played wheelchair sport.
Within two years, the popularity of wheelchair basketball caught on, and six VA hospital teams were organized throughout the United States and games were hosted by Paralyzed Veterans of America (PVA) and. The PVA held three successful tournaments but was soon replaced by the new, highly competitive NWBA tournament. In the mid 1970's, women teams began to emerge, creating a new era of wheelchair basketball.
At the time there was only one division- joining women were permitted to play on formerly all-male teams. However, between 1970 and 1990, a women's division was created. By the 1991 NWBA tournaments consisted of eleven women's teams, with six teams playing a regular schedule of games in the NWBA conferences.
The addition of a women's division to the NWBA tournaments wasn't the only major change for wheelchair basketball in 1991. In Fall of 1991, the Congress of USA Basketball voted to make the NWBA an active member in its organization. For the preceding eleven years the league was on the Associate member level of the Congress of USA Basketball. Even better was the fact that NWBA Commissioner, Stan Labanowich was appointed to the Congress of USA Basketball's Board of Directors.
Wheelchair basketball has come a long way since its 1940's beginnings. We are proud to say that National Wheelchair Basketball Association is experiencing worldwide popularity - and we don't plan on slowing down anytime soon! The next stop for NWBA - the Olympics!

The surprise acquisition of Lucasfilm by Disney Tuesday will certainly shake up the film world, but the deal also looks set to have substantial ripple effects in other parts of the entertainment industry. (Read More: Disney to Buy Lucasfilm in Deal Worth Over $4 Billion)
Disney and Lucasfilm both have video game studios. Both have substantial licensing arms. And both have advanced technology divisions that lead the industry. The impact from those units, say experts, could make the deal's $4 billion price tag look like a bargain.
"Arguably, it's a cheap acquisition," says Wedbush analyst Michael Pachter. "I think as successful as Lucas has been in licensing toys and shirts and lunch boxes, Disney has made that into an art form and they'll be better at it."
With Disney's global retail reach, Pachter says he expects to see Star Wars (and Indiana Jones) merchandise become even more prevalent in the near- to mid-term. Additionally, he notes, Disney will be better able to exploit the Lucas properties in its broad media holdings, creating more licensing opportunities. (Read More: Iger, Lucas Weigh in on Disney's $4 Billion Lucasfilm Acquisition )
That's something Disney has said it intends to make a priority.
"In 2012 Lucasfilm's consumer products business is expected to generate total licensing revenue that is comparable to the roughly $215 million in consumer products revenue Marvel generated in 2009, the year in which we announced our acquisition," said Jay Rasulo, senior executive vice president and CFO of Disney. "With renewed film releases, and the support we can give the Star Wars property on our Disney-branded TV channels, we expect that business to grow substantially and profitably for many years to come." (Read More:After the Disney Deal, How Much Is Lucas Worth? )
In the video game sector, Disney and LucasArts (the Lucasfilm division that focuses on interactive entertainment) haven't been giant players lately. Disney's many efforts to become a top tier publisher in the past have fallen short of the bar set by publishers like Activision and Electronic Arts. LucasArts hit some highs in the last console generation, but has not developed a blockbuster hit in-house for many years.
Last year, Disney Interactive Studios (that company's gaming arm) laid off hundreds of employees as part of a shift away from console games to focus on social and mobile titles – and it has seen some notable success in that area, with hit apps such as "Where's My Water?"
The company indicated, in a conference call discussing the Lucasfilm deal, that it expects to continue that focus, even with the Star Wars license in house now.
"We're likely to focus more on social and mobile than we are on console," said Disney CEO Robert Iger. "We'll look opportunistically at console, most likely in licensing rather than publishing, but we think that given the nature of these characters and how well known they are, and the storytelling, that they lend themselves quite nicely, as they've already demonstrated to the other platforms."
That presents a potential hurdle, since most video game publishers are avoiding licensed content these days. New films from well-established franchises are sometimes the exception to that, but after EA's high-profile stumble with "Star Wars: The Old Republic" (which cost nearly $200 million to make, but has failed to establish a significant player base), there are questions about the brand's strength in the video game world.
Beyond its mobile gaming arm, though, Disney does have some very respected console developers on staff, including Warren Spector, who received the Lifetime Achievement award earlier this year at the Game Developer Choice Awards and oversaw the production of the upcoming "Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two".
With the deal, Disney also picks up Industrial Light & Magic and Skywalker Sound—widely considered two of the best post-production facilities in Hollywood. Beyond the potential income from other studios utilizing their talents, they could also boost Disney's other film offerings—both live-action (such as films based on its Marvel Universe characters) and animated.
"Whatever we think of Pixar, I'm sure they would love those assets," says Pachter.
While Disney's announcement of a new Star Wars film in 2015 — and subsequent installments every two to three years afterward — captured the spotlight and piqued investor interest, even Disney acknowledges the earnings potential from other synergies found in the deal. And, it confesses, those potential earnings were not reflected in the valuation.
"Our Lucasfilm valuation is almost entirely driven by the Star Wars franchise, so any success from other franchises would provide upside to our base case," says Rasulo.
That conservative thinking makes sense, says Ric Marshall, chief analyst with GovernanceMetrics International. One thing you shouldn't expect to see from either side, though, is a lot of bold moves in the near future.
"This is a combination that is about combing proven entities," he says. "This is not about risk taking or creative ideas. This is taking two solid, established business, bringing them together and making smart business decisions around the combined company."

The Regulatory State
This course considers the principal modes of ex ante government intervention in markets, generally described as "regulation." The course focuses on economic regulation -- that is, the mode of regulation typically associated with utilities and other quasi-public enterprises -- although it will also touch on health and safety regulation, environmental regulation, and other models of regulation. Economic regulation presents a special case because it generally arises when government decides that a particular industry or market has special characteristics requiring intervention, while health, safety, and other forms of regulation are generally applicable (even if implemented in industry-specific regulations). The course starts by defining the traditional justifications for regulation, and evaluating them in light of current understandings (legal, economic, and political). Next, the course discusses the techniques of regulation, what might be called the "regulator's toolbox," including various forms of price regulation, interconnection and unbundling requirements, quality regulation, and service obligations. The trend towards deregulation will be placed in this context, with particular emphasis on the changes in regulation in the U.S. telecommunications and Internet industries. Finally, the course will identify certain alternatives to regulation, such as tort remedies and the application of antitrust.

Brutus Magnus
Real Name
Nick Aldis
Date of Birth
November 6, 1986
Place of Birth
"I'm as grateful to Sting as anybody in the wrestling business for the benefit he has had in my career. Steve is a great guy and very very smart and just a model citizen as far as the way he conducts himself and how much respect he commands. There are some people who seem to be obsessed with respect and seem to be obsessed with guys not showing them enough respect but Sting is a guy who has never had to pull any stunts, never had to bully anyone, never had to throw his weight around or pull rank; he commands respect. The same could be said about Kurt Angle." - Brutus Magnus discusses how Sting is backstage
April 15, 2014
If TNA decides to keep the belt on Eric Young for the long term, an idea which is being tossed around backstage because of his marketing value at the moment, then management is going to push Bobby Roode up as a challenger for the world heavyweight championship. There are still talks of Brutus Magnus recapturing the belt at TNA Sacrifice 2014.
April 14, 2014
A video of Eric Young winning the TNA World Heavyweight Championship from Brutus Magnus on Impact Wrestling this week.
April 13, 2014
In an extremely shocking bit of news, Eric Young has defeated Brutus Magnus to become the new TNA World Heavyweight Champion. He had earned himself a title shot at the beginning of Impact Wrestling, where Young won a gauntlet match. Instead of waiting for the title shot, he demanded it on the same night. A piledriver sealed the pin fall victory for Young.
April 10, 2014
When Bobby Lashley made his return to TNA, some felt that it might have been a temporary appearance. However, that was squashed when it was revealed that was back for an extended period of time. There are rumors floating around right now that TNA could use his name value to give some credibility to Brutus Magnus in a title program.
March 27, 2014
A picture of the official Slammiversary 2014 poster, which features Brutus Magnus as the centerpiece attraction. Behind him are Bobby Roode, Jeff Hardy, MVP and Kurt Angle, which has led to speculations that TNA could be doing a big world heavyweight championship match featuring all five of the performers.
March 26, 2014
Internally, TNA is hoping that they can build up Gunner over the next several months, so that he can become a title challenger for Brutus Magnus and the world heavyweight championship. His program with James Storm and fantastic match at TNA Lockdown 2014 helped increase his credibility in the eyes of the fans. Management will be doing more of that as well.
March 15, 2014
During a recent interview, Mickie James revealed that she is back in a relationship with Brutus Magnus. The former WWE diva and the current TNA heavyweight champion went through a breakup last year, but it looks like they have reconciled their differences.
March 14, 2014
It is now being reported that Mickie James is pregnant. She has been telling independent wrestling promoters that she is willing to make appearances, but she can no longer take a bump in the ring. The former TNA star recently revealed that she is back with Brutus Magnus again. The two had split up for a period of time.

A video preview of the big world heavyweight championship match between Samoa Joe and Brutus Magnus that will be taking place at TNA Lockdown 2014 this weekend.
March 9, 2014
While he is not officially booked for an event, you can expect to see Rockstar Spud being involved in the main event TNA championship match between Brutus Magnus and Samoa Joe. On Impact Wrestling, Dixie Carter was selling the fact that Magnus would be out there alone. That is simply a set up for some interference from Spud.
March 8, 2014
Through his latest blog post, Jim Ross was critical of TNA because the company has Kurt Angle working a mid card match at TNA Lockdown 2014. For those that are not aware, the former world heavyweight champion has been booked for a steel cage match against Ethan Carter. The main event of the pay per view features Brutus Magnus and Samoa Joe.
March 5, 2014
While there are those backstage that believe that he is deserving of another title reign, the belief right now is that Samoa Joe will not be taking the belt from Brutus Magnus. TNA wants to give him a nice long reign to build up his heel heat, so that when the time is right, a baby face would get the huge victory over him.
February 26, 2014
While it has yet to be officially announced for the pay per view, many are expecting a match between James Storm and Gunner will be added to TNA Lockdown 2014. On Impact Wrestling this week, Storm turned heel by hitting his super kick on a flying Gunner during his heavyweight championship match against Brutus Magnus.
February 23, 2014
The belief right now is that Kurt Angle will be the next performer to challenge Brutus Magnus for the TNA World Heavyweight Championship. He is currently involved in a program with Samoa Joe, and the plan appears to be for Magnus to retain and move on. It also appears that Angle will be putting over Magnus as well.
February 18, 2014
TNA has produced several different posters to promote TNA Lockdown 2014, and here is the one featuring the current world heavyweight champion Brutus Magnus.
February 17, 2014
On March 2, several TNA stars are being sent to Japan to work the Wrestle-1 Outbreak pay per view in Tokyo. Brutus Magnus is scheduled to defend the world title, and now we know that the challenger will be Kai, who won a couple of qualifying matches to get the coveted spot. The Great Muta himself has been putting together the card.
February 15, 2014
Since TNA really wants Brutus Magnus to be viewed as a main event performer, one of the ideas being tossed around backstage is to have Kurt Angle put him over in an upcoming feud. Many feel that a win over the former world champion would help add credibility to both his character and his reign. TNA could do a huge match on a special edition of Impact Wrestling.
February 14, 2014
In order to help his new promotion gain more fans, the Great Muta is putting together a big pay per view in March. It now has a name. Wrestle-1 has revealed that the event will be called Outbreak. Thanks to a business deal with TNA, the show will feature stars such as Brutus Magnus, Christopher Daniels, Samoa Joe and Bobby Roode.
February 12, 2014
After driving through a menacing snow storm and working live events in Michigan and Illinois this weekend, several of the TNA performers, including Brutus Magnus, Robbie E, Ethan Carter and Eddie Edwards took a trip to visit former Knockout Tara at her restaurant, The Squared Circle, in Chicago. A couple of pictures have been posted on Twitter.

EXCLUSIVE: Matthew Modine On THE DARK KNIGHT RISES & FULL METAL JACKET Diary iPad App
Dream that dream, Matt.In The Dark Knight Rises your character is killed by Talia's henchman, gunning you down, but leaked set videos and photos showed your character being rundown by her camouflage tumbler. Was your death scene a surprise when you saw the film?
Yes. But edited movies are always a surprise. I'm hoping that the reason for this edit, which by the way was an incredible stunt and powerfully shot, is that, if there is a subsequent Batman film, Foley may not actually be dead. He found something out about himself in the streets of Gotham and he could be a worthy new Police Commissioner of the city we love.
Wonder why Nolan decided to change it. Maybe censors flagged it for an R rating?
That's a good point. There were several moments in this movie and the last one where you could tell they had to pull the camera away in order to keep the PG-13 rating. Bane breaking Dr. Pavel's neck, Joker killing Gamble, etc.
Rumor: THE DARK KNIGHT RISES Blu-ray Has Extended Director's Cut with 30 Extra Minutes and Bane's Origin | Collider
Given the economic way he shoots and scripts his projects, Christopher Nolan doesn't bother with deleted scenes. The Dark Knight Rises was a whopping 2 hours and 45 minutes, so it is hard to believe that anything was left on the cutting room floor. However, Nuke the Fridge hears different. Their sources say that there will be a director's cut on the Dark Knight Rises Blu-ray that includes Bane's origin and more screentime for Ra's Al Ghul. This would reportedly add about 30 minutes to the film, pushing it well over three hours.
Treat this as a rumor for now, but it would coincide with previous talk about possible deleted scenes. Hit the jump for more.
This rumor comes to us via Nuke the Fridge, who points to costume designer Lindy Hemming's previous statements regarding a Bane flashback that she assumed had made the final cut:
"The thing that you should have seen during that sequence is [Bane] being injured in his youth. So one of the fundamental things about his costume is that he has this scar from the back injury. Even if he hasn't got the bulletproof vest on, he still has to wear the waist belt and the braces. In that scene in the prison, where he's learning to fight the same way Batman learned to fight, he's wearing an early version of his waist belt. It's showing support, but it's not the finished one he eventually wears. He's also wearing an early version of his gas mask, all glued together… If you look at the film, unless they've cut it—and I'm sure they haven't—there's a whole early section for Tom Hardy where he's fighting and being taunted by people. He's got chains on him, and he's standing on a wooden thing while people are attacking him. And in that scene, he's wearing a much more ragged, primitive version of the mask."
Nolan is the effective spokesperson of IMAX. One downside to his love of the format is the time limitation, and that 165-minute runtime pushes right up against the limit of what can fit on 70mm IMAX prints. So there is a plausible reason for this to be the one Nolan film that could not fit every scene he wanted.
Christian Bale is on a role.

As President Obama prepares to raise the debt ceiling -- after the Senate waived its opposition last week -- $5 trillion hikes evidently are no longer "unpatriotic" as Obama said they were in 2008 while describing former President George W. Bush's $4 trillion increase over eight years. The White House requested authority earlier this month to raise the debt ceiling to $16.4 trillion, up $1.2 trillion from last summer and more than $5 trillion from the statutory limit of $11.3 trillion set in October 2008 before Obama took office. The debt at the time Obama entered the White House was $10.6 trillion. The ceiling was raised to $12.1 trillion within a month of his inauguration. Such increases used to be anathema to Obama, who voted in March 2006 along with all his Senate Democratic colleagues against Bush's hike of the debt ceiling to $8.9 trillion. At the time, Obama called raising the debt limit "a sign of leadership failure." Out on the campaign trail in July 2008, he suggested the move was downright un-American.
I can see Obama sitting at the bar on Air Force One flying around the country buying votes with taxpayer dollars. Clay, if you weren't on the DNC payroll, you would draw at least one cartoon of Obama spending our country into bankruptcy. Our children and grandchildren are going to pay our bar tab that is currently $16,000,000,000,000.00 (that's 16 trillion dollars for you people who went to government schools).
well it cost 6.8 billion to get watts bar #1 on line and we have sank 2.5 bill.into w.b.#2 so far, so rather than walk off they gonna sink 2 billion more into it! what else would they do other than bite the bullit and finish the job?

Yeah, tu_q, those rabidly pro-nuclear liberals are at it again.
Non power producing flood control systems?? You mean drop the water through the dams, but don't sell the electricity it generates? Gravity is free! You and your tragic magic logic.
Good point Ea Tn....this combination of corporation and govt entity is sorta like Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac...a disaster.
It is corrupt business, not corrupt government, that is at the heart of this boondoggle. Bad management at TVA has allowed the private contractors to get away with the loot without providing goods.
Without TVA the tennessee valley would still be cooking squirrels over open pits.
The anger should mostly be directed at the private contractors who see any government contract as an opportunity to pilfer the public coffers. Follow the money. It ends up in the pockets of private contractors.
Who pays the politicians for access to the pilfering party? Private business. Who pays attorneys for loopholes to contracts? Private business.
It is the criminal element of business that is the root of 90% of Americas problems. Our Government is overwhelmed and unable to protect us from these crooks.
To onetinsoldier: If politicians ran for office to serve the citizens instead of running to gain power and money, they would not be corrupted by criminal business elements.

You're certainly right about this, Soldier. In this case, I noted that TVA contracted with Bechtel, which certainly alerted my radar. As you may recall, Bechtel was one of the first corporations to receive a reconstruction contract after George Bush invaded Iraq. The contract was worth an estimate $680 million. Apparently, there was one problem after another - sewage treatment facililties that never worked, landfill projects that were never dug, projects failing within months after their installation etc. Bechtel also subcontracted a lot of the work to companies that in turn subcontracted parts of the work to other companies making oversight almost impossible.
Jack_Dennis said: "Clay123. We need a new toon. HAHAHAHA"
Jack, you have an weird sense of humor. Even if you disagree about the need for more solar resources, it seems to me that you would have a little concern with some of the contract details. Apparently, TVA's management did not even require the reator contractors to shoulder any financial risk if the plant construction doesn't meet a deadline or is under par. This fact is really unsettling, especially when you think about what is going on with Bechtel in Washington:
August 14, 2011 - LA Times"
"The Energy Department has asserted that Bechtel Corp. underplayed safety risks from equipment it is installing at the nation's largest nuclear waste cleanup project, according to government records.
A federal engineering review team found in late July that Bechtel's safety evaluation of key equipment at the plant at the Hanford site in Washington state was incomplete and that "the risks are more serious" than Bechtel acknowledged when it sought approval to continue with construction, the documents say.
Senior scientists at the site said in emails obtained by The Times that Bechtel's designs for tanks and mixing equipment are flawed, representing such a massive risk that work should be stopped on that part of the construction project.
1-18-2012 - USA Today
"Documents obtained by USA TODAY show at least three federal investigations are underway to examine the project, which is funded and supervised by the Department of Energy, owner of Hanford Site. Bechtel National is the prime contractor.
In November, the Energy Department's independent oversight office notified Bechtel that it is investigating "potential nuclear safety non-compliances" in the design and installation of plant systems and components. And the department's inspector general is in the final stages of a separate probe focused on whether Bechtel installed critical equipment that didn't meet quality-control standards.
Meanwhile, Congress' Government Accountability Office has launched a sweeping review of everything from cost and schedule overruns to the risks associated with the Energy Department's decision to proceed with construction before completing and verifying the design of key components."
Is the cartoon implying that TVA is drunk on money?
Laurel: I've never been a TVA fan. It should have been privatized years ago. You can blame the gubment boys for allowing the Bechtels of the world to flourish unchecked. As for solar/wind energy, bring it on if it's price competitive. The free market would sort it out, but the gubment has to have its grubby (and inefficient) hands in the pie.
Jack_Dennis said: "'ve never been a TVA fan."
I think it obvious TVA's current problems are related to bad management - very bad management. As for the original TVA project, I like FDR's attitude and vision that led to the development of the TVA. Clearly, it was a good idea:
"Although nearly 90 percent of urban dwellers had electricity by the 1930s, only ten percent of rural dwellers did. Private utility companies, who supplied electric power to most of the nation's consumers, argued that it was too expensive to string electric lines to isolated rural farmsteads.
Anyway, they said, most farmers, were too poor to be able to afford electricity. The Roosevelt Administration believed that if private enterprise could not supply electric power to the people, then it was the duty of the government to do so.
In addition to paying for the energy he used, the farmer was expected to advance to the power company most or all of the costs of construction. Since utility company ideas as to what constituted sound rural lines have been rather fancy, such costs were prohibitive for most farmers."
Price of Electricity per KWH:
National Average 10.64
MS 9.40, AL 9.24, GA 9.07, NC 9.36, KY 7.19, Va 8.72
Privitize TVA? Becareful what you wish for!
We were decimated by the tornado in mMarch, Woodland Bay & Davis Mill sub wiped out in Harrison. Several trees block main drainage arteries into the TVA owned lake. They refuse to clean out the drainage basins (chocked full of fallen trees to make the lake safe for all. What a waste of taxpayer dollars - TVA is a disgrace

for lelands baby shower she was given a rattle but since then she will not put it down she has to know were it is at all times or my day will be misreble I have to keep it close the diaper bag the crib the car she takes it everywhere I really don't know what to do she stresses over the toy
My little boy did that with his Percy train. I had to know where it was 24/7. As a result, I bought 2 more just so I could keep them as emergency back-ups~ This is most likey a phase and will pass in time. But when she does finally outgrow the rattle, you will want to pick it up and put it in her baby box..such a good memory when they get older.
I love MommyRN4's idea - get one or two rattles and keep one in the car, one in the diaper bag and one in the house. Hopefully that will save you from a day of tears!

Since 1832, when Henry Newton and William Winsor introduced the first moist watercolors to the world, much of Winsor & Newton's reputation for supreme quality has stemmed from the Artists' Watercolor range. More than 170 years later, the original Winsor & Newton moist watercolor continues to be formulated and manufactured according to the company's founding principles — to create an unparalleled watercolor range that offers artists the widest and most balanced choice of pigments with the greatest possible permanence.
Through strict adherence to these founding principles, Winsor & Newton has achieved brilliance, transparency, and purity of color unparalleled by any other watercolor. For the 21st century, these key qualities are achieved through a combination of choice of raw materials, custom-made machinery, and expert formulation by experienced chemists and artists who have spent their working lifetimes formulating Artists' Watercolor.
Today, the Winsor & Newton Artists' Watercolor range benefits from continued advancements in pigment technology and production methods, building on the company's already high standards to produce even brighter, more transparent, and more stable colors. Equally important, many of the formulations remain the same — proving that they cannot be bettered!

ALONZO KING is not a celebrity. He is virtually unknown outside the dance world, and even to insiders he is something of an outsider, a choreographer-monk working away with a small troupe of devoted dancers in San Francisco. It is not that his work has gone unrecognized: he has won dozens of awards and made ballets for companies as diverse as the Alvin Ailey Dance Theater and the Royal Swedish Ballet.

Select the General pane, and scroll to the App Icons section.
Specify an image in the App Icon table by clicking the folder icon on the right side of the image row, selecting the image file in the dialog that appears, and clicking the Add button.
After you specify an image, you can preview it by clicking the preview icon on the end of the image row.
Migrate the images in the App Icon table to an asset catalog by clicking the Use Asset Catalog button, selecting an asset catalog from the popup menu, and clicking the Migrate button.
Alternatively, you can create an empty app icon set by choosing Editor > New App Icon, and add images to the set by dragging them from the Finder or by choosing Editor > Import.

Hozelock AC Pro with Rain Sensor - 2703
The most versatile and easy-to-operate electronic water timer with large interactive LCD screen using the same familiar menu configuration found on most mobile telephones. Conserves water by linking directly to a remote Rain Sensor which is included, which immediately cancels any watering setting once rain is detected There is a choice range of 4 programing methods:-
Product Details:
Click the link to download PDF: Hozelock 2701 Instruction Manual.
Easy to Setup and Use Ordered this at the last minute as I was going away for 2 weeks.
Setup was straightforward. The unit was also very easy to test i.e. to make sure the settings worked! The rain-sensor worked really well - definitely not a gimmick as I thought...
Very pleased with this product and Easy Watering.
Randall Mason - Oxford
Directions clear & easy to follow. Excellent product which was quick & easy to install. Instructions made it easy for my wife to programme! Bought rain sensor which I thought might have been a waste of money, however I am very impressed with it. Should have bought batteries at same time as I thought I had some, big mistake.
V&A - Dorset
Does what it says on the tin ! This is the first time I have used a timed watering device and to my pleasant surprise it was incredibly easy to configure and worked first time.
The only area that takes a bit of trial and error is setting up the optional rain sensor so that it either turns off the watering or allows watering.

Best I've Faced: Manny Pacquiao
Future hall of famer Manny Pacquiao took time out from his hectic schedule leading into this Saturday's rematch with Tim Bradley to speak with RingTV.com about the best fighters he has faced in 10 key categories.
Future hall of famer Manny Pacquiao took time out from his hectic schedule leading into this Saturday's rematch with Tim Bradley to speak with RingTV.com about the best fighters he has faced in 10 key categories.
The United States Court of Appeal for The Fifth Circuit has dismissed a $1 million lawsuit that was filed by Imperial ED against Manny Pacquiao. The suit was described as "frivolous" by the fighter's advisor, Michael Koncz.
Shane Mosley appeared to be on the way to losing to Anthony Mundine before complaining of back spasms which led to their fight being stopped after the sixth round, resulting in a technical knockout victory for Mundine.
Golden Boy's Dec. 7 and Dec. 14 shows will feature what Richard Schaefer calls "the best fights that you can make at 147," including Adrien Broner-Marcos Maidana, Devon Alexander-Shawn Porter, Keith Thurman-Jesus Soto Karass, and Paulie Malignaggi-Zab Judah.
Brandon Rios expects to be faster and lighter on his feet against Manny Pacquiao as a result of working with Alex Ariza, but and his trainer, Robert Garcia, don't discuss strategy with the strength and conditioning coach.
Antonio Margarito, Miguel Cotto and others from the Dec. 3 Madison Square Garden show hit the scales. Photos by Chris Farina – Top Rank
Miguel Cotto and Antonio Margarito met in New York to kick off the press tour for their December rematch. Photos by Chris Farina – Top Rank.
According to trainer Robert Garcia, first-time welterweight Brandon Rios is looking good ahead of his Nov. 23 bout with Manny Pacquiao, exhibiting knockout power and better speed in his sparring sessions.
Miguel Cotto's third-round stoppage of Delvin Rodriguez ranks as the highest drawing cable fight of 2013 so far.
Follow RingTV.com's live blog of tonight's junior middleweight third-round knockout by three-division titlewinner Miguel Cotto over Delvin Rodriguez.
Miguel Cotto and Delvin Rodriguez weighed 153.2 and 154 pounds, respectively, in advance of their junior middleweight fight on Saturday in Orlando, Fla.
Junior middleweight contender Delvin Rodriguez lists cutting his opponents among his specialties, and says that against Miguel Cotto "it's going to definitely happen … As soon as I hit him good, he's going to cut."
The promoters of Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. and Bryan Vera are targeting a Dec. 14 date for their rematch. Chavez won a controversial 10-round unanimous decision this past Saturday.
Miguel Cotto will look to be busier and return to his "bread and butter" body attack against Delvin Rodriguez, according to trainer Freddie Roach.
Miguel Cotto said he more or less plans to finish the his career with new trainer Freddie Roach, who trained Manny Pacquiao to knock Cotto out in 2009. Roach said the two "are very good friends now" and will "never fight again."
Former welterweight beltholder Joshua Clottey will return to the ring on Saturday against Dashon Johnson in Huntingtown, N.Y. Fans who attend the show also have the opportunity to watch the Floyd Mayweather-Canelo Alvarez fight on a big screen.
Speaking from the perspective of someone who has faced both Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Canelo Alvarez, former champ Sugar Shane Mosely said: "This could be a tremendous fight."
Saul Alvarez ended Shane Mosley's run of 21 straight victories over rivals of Mexican descent when they fought last May, and now he is looking to for a similar, if not, more impressive result against Floyd Mayweather Jr.
Former welterweight titleholder Joshua Clottey has signed with Star Boxing and could return to the ring as a middleweight.
Former ring foes Manny Pacquiao and Miguel Cotto are each being trained for their upcoming bouts by Freddie Roach. The two future hall of famers met recently at Roach's Wild Card Boxing Club in Hollywood, Calif.

The 2013 UEFA Super Cup takes place on Friday 30 August, with the Blues facing Bayern Munich at Prague's Eden Stadium, and there are still a few tickets remaining which are currently on sale to both season ticket holders and members (one per person).
Our 2-1 Europa League final win over Benfica in May ensured we would face the Bundesliga side, now under the guidance of Pep Guardiola, after they beat Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League final at Wembley.
The Super Cup represents the first opportunity of the new season to win a trophy, and Jose Mourinho and his players will be eager to lay down a marker for the remainder of the campaign by securing a positive result.
With the game taking place in Prague, one of Europe's most attractive and affordable destinations, make sure you take this opportunity to cheer the Blues on to glory as we attempt to win the trophy for the second time.

We have all seen a fair share of backgrounds created by both pros and amateurs. Nearly anyone can download a copy of an editing tool and start working on their own masterpiece. So, what are the key elements of creating a wallpaper that people are going to love and use?
Color scheme
Whether you think it's true or not, color does play a huge role in people's choice. The shade, gradients, and combinations all matter. For example, blue is considered to be calming. The color red, on the other hand, can make someone feel happy, proud, or even angry.
One other thing you can learn about is choosing a proper palette. Orange, light green, and brown can make your artwork look earthy and natural.
Pick your colors well, and you will be rewarded with great results!
3D effects - worth it or not?
Many designers I work with in my daily job love to use shiny effects on everything. They apply drop shadows and glow to all their graphics. Our clients who are older, usually seniors, actually think it's a good idea. To them, it looks sleek and modern. They don't know what real art is, in my opinion. I believe that the best design style is actually minimalism. There are a set of rules everyone can follow to create art, a universal design language. In the 21st century, tech companies want to make everything as simple as possible. The people in charge of creating interfaces want to make the buttons square and flat, not round and curved. I think that it's a lot better to look at than plain old 3D.
What to include in your background
There are nearly an infinite number of objects and shapes you could add. However, these are by far the most common:
- Rainbows – Ah yes. Rainbows, you see, are a natural phenomenon that people just happen to love. After all, they contain all of the colors in the visual spectrum. By adding one of them to your wallpaper, you'll make it a lot more attractive with very little effort involved. And there's no reason not to try a double rainbow!
- Water – The ways you can use it are unlimited. For a fancy backdrop, you could add a beach or ocean. If you were to make water the subject of your wallpaper, then you may wish to add a photograph of a water droplet. See what I mean?
The use of textures
Now we need to cover the interesting topic of textures. They include: leather, wood, plastic… Use these to your advantage by combining them.
After reading this guide, you should know how to make a good desktop background now. You could use software like Adobe Photoshop CS6 or Illustrator to aid you. Upload your work to Deviantart or Tumblr, or share it with us!
